Considered Both Products
MailerLite
Chose MailerLite
MailerLite is heads and heels above the others. It is easier to use and allows more subscribers before wanting more money
Chose MailerLite
We have tried a couple of others but not in any depth. I found the pricing structure of MailerLite better for our early needs as we didn't know how we would use it, and how that use would evolve as we grew.
Chose MailerLite
I moved to Constant Contact from MailerLite as the reporting and segmentation was deeper. But the editor and the lack of decent forms and landing pages soon brought me back to MailerLite.

Mailchimp got too expensive.
Chose MailerLite
It's cheaper and way better supported. Unlike Mailchimp, MailerLite supports small businesses and does not charge until you hit 1,000 subscribers.
Chose MailerLite
It seemed complicated to me, MailerLite is easier to use and more transparent.

Nekem bonyolultnak tűnt, a MailerLite könnyebben használható, átláthatóbb.
Chose MailerLite
Better CS even during our free plan, they were hands-on with helping us whenever we needed it.
Chose MailerLite
MailerLite offers a similar service to MailChimp, but is less expensive. Hopefully the customer service with MailerLite will be better even with the tiered structure of customer service.
Chose MailerLite
The cost and flexibility to do what we need is why we went to MailerLite.
Chose MailerLite
We chose MailerLite compared to the other one's listed because of the free live chat on the free tier.
Chose MailerLite
it's pretty much the same, even has some more restrictions that mailchimp when compared.
Chose MailerLite
It's better value for money. The service is quicker and more helpful.
Chose MailerLite
I selected MailerLite because the free version has all the capabilities I need now and is not time-limited. The paid versions are much more reasonably priced than competitors. I plan to upgrade to the paid version soon so that was a key concern for me. MailerLite lets me get …
Chose MailerLite
I didn't like Mailchimps pricing at the time of my decision. I preferred to ramp up in smaller segments of price/month. I also liked MailerLite's automation UX.
Chose MailerLite
MailerLite is easier to use and has a better user interface in my opinion
Chose MailerLite
I haven't used any others, but I was considering Mailchimp
Chose MailerLite
I moved over from Mailchimp because it became too expensive. MailerLite gives me even more value for a better price.
Chose MailerLite
Cheaper, mainly. And a little more user-friendly. Some other platforms, especially Klaviyo, are quite complex to understand and to get the most out of.
Chose MailerLite
The company I wanted to mention isn't in your dropdown list: BEACONS. While they're more like LinkTree, they also have a great feature to build a newsletter following and their AI prompts encourage you to send more newsletter blasts and then help write the e-mail for you with …

Likelihood to Recommend
I didn't have much luck when testing other similar tools and since we tested with free plan, we couldn't commit to something else if we couldn't get basic stuff fixed. That's when we switched to MailerLite, and their support was great and super helpful all the way (during our free plan, especially). Plus, they're super budget-friendly for startups, so I highly recommend.

I had problems sending and communicating to one hundred and fifty (150) clients. I was supposed to send them information about the ongoing migration and training for new suppliers for our new program. Since the emails and client information is a lot, I had to seek for help. That's where Mailmeteor came in, I was advised by a colleague and I have been using it ever since.

Pros
  • Offers a user-friendly interface, making it simple to create beautiful forms, group subscribers, and automate emails.
  • Includes email automation workflows in their free plan - the only provider I know of that doesn't charge you after one month or hit you with "transaction fees".
  • Excellent video tutorial library so you can learn email marketing as a beginner without feeling overwhelmed.

  • Sending batch emails
  • Providing real time updates on the status of the communication sent
  • Provides analyzation on certain errors or glitches that is caused by the communication in progress

Cons
  • Setting up the automations is a bit confusing at first. But the customer support is patient and kind to walk you through the process.
  • The nuances between group and segment, automation and campaign are odd as most other ESPs don't do that. But they have great explainer materials.
Read full review
  • The website is too simple.
  • You need to accurately arrange email placement, won't accept separation as simple as "coma".
  • Though it may provide real time assessment on the status of the communication sent, most of the time especially when encountering errors, it doesn't provide exact info on what the errors were.

Mailerlite is awesome and it does everything I need and then some. They're always innovating and adding new features, and their team is flippin' amazing. Can't see myself ever switching. They may not have everything, but looking at how well their team works, they'll get there for sure and I'm willing to wait.
